Equisetum arvense was first recorded in Wanganui in 1922 and has since spread aggressively along river banks throughout much of the southern North Island, and northern South Island. Equisetum hyemale is less invasive, occurring in mostly urban areas from Whangarei to Invercargill, whilst E. fluviatile is known from just one collection near Huntly. All species of Equisetum have a characteristic growth form with erect aerial stems that are usually hollow, jointed and longitudinally grooved, produce whorls of branches and leaves, and bear conspicuous terminal strobili which themselves comprise whorls of peltate sporangiophores. Species of Equisetum are commonly known as horsetails because of their distinctive appearance, or as scouring rushes because of their high silica content. 1 Equisetaceae Michx. ex DC., Essai Propr. Méd. Pl., 49 (1804) Type taxon: Equisetum L. Terrestrial ferns. Underground stems long-creeping, freely branching, bearing wiry roots. Aerial stems green, erect, branching in whorls or unbranched, usually with a central hollow surrounded by two rings of smaller alternating cavities, jointed, longitudinally grooved, siliceous, glabrous, bearing leaves in sheathing whorls at the nodes. Leaves united laterally into a sheath, toothed at the apices, equalling the number of stem grooves. Veins undivided in each leaf. Strobili terminal on main aerial stems, or sometimes on lateral stems, or on specialised shoots lacking chlorophyll, bearing stalked peltate sporangiophores arranged in whorls. Several sporangia pendent from adaxial surface of heads of sporangiophores; each sporangium sessile, lacking an annulus and dehiscing by a longitudinal slit, containing 1000s of spores and elaters. Homosporous; spores alete, spherical, attached to four coiled elaters, granulate to smooth, chlorophyllous. Taxonomy: A family of one genus and 15 species (Hauke 1990). The Equisetaceae is a very distinctive family of terrestrial ferns with erect aerial stems that are usually hollow, jointed and longitudinally grooved, produce whorls of branches and leaves, bear conspicuous terminal strobili comprising whorls of peltate sporangiophores, and have a base chromosome number of 108. Traditionally the Equisetaceae has been included within the fern allies, and is clearly related to early groups of fossil plants in the Sphenophyllales and Calamitales. However, molecular evidence now indicates that the family is part of the ferns, albeit distantly related and its exact placement remains uncertain. Pryer et al. (2004) and Smith et al. (2006) treated Equisetaceae as sister to Marattiaceae, but Rai & Graham (2010) suggested that the group is sister to the rest of the ferns. Christenhusz et al. (2011) considered the latter position to be more consistent with the fossil record but continued to include Equisetaceae within the ferns. Distribution: Virtually cosmopolitan except for Australia and New Zealand. Three naturalised species occur in New Zealand. Biostatus: Exotic; fully naturalised.

Pl., 1061 (1753) Type taxon: Equisetum arvense L. Etymology: From the Latin equus (horse), and seta (bristle), a reference to the resemblance of the vegetative stem to a horse's tail. Vernacular names: horsetail; scouring rush Terrestrial ferns. Underground stems long-creeping, freely branching, bearing wiry roots. Aerial stems green, erect, branching in whorls or unbranched, usually with a central hollow surrounded by two rings of smaller alternating cavities, jointed, longitudinally grooved, siliceous, glabrous, bearing leaves in sheathing whorls at the nodes.

Homosporous; spores alete, spherical, attached to four coiled elaters, granulate to smooth, chlorophyllous. Taxonomy: A genus of 15 species. Equisetum comprises two well-marked subgenera, Equisetum and Hippochaete (Hauke 1990). Subgenus Equisetum is distinguished by its superficial stomata, which are usually scattered or in bands of two or more stomata wide, by its non-apiculate strobili, and its annual, regularly branched, aerial stems. Subgenus Hippochaete has sunken stomata in single lines, apiculate strobili, and usually perennial, often unbranched, aerial stems. Of the species occurring in New Zealand, E. hyemale belongs to subgenus Hippochaete, and E. arvense and E. fluviatile to subgenus Equisetum. 2 1 Fertile and sterile stems dimorphic; sterile stems with abundant whorls of branches .......................................................... .......................................................... arvense Fertile and sterile stems monomorphic; sterile stems unbranched, or only sparsely branched .................................................................................................................. 2 2 Sterile stems 400–600 mm tall, sparsely branched; ridges on aerial stems smooth; apices of strobili obtuse ................................................................................ fluviatile Sterile stems 1000–2000 mm tall, usually unbranched; ridges on aerial stems with two rows of tubercles; apices of strobili apiculate .................................... hyemale Distribution: Virtually cosmopolitan except for Australia and New Zealand.

  • Earliest Record of Megaphylls and Leafy Structures, and Their Initial Diversification
    Review Geology August 2013 Vol.58 No.23: 27842793 doi: 10.1007/s11434-013-5799-x Earliest record of megaphylls and leafy structures, and their initial diversification HAO ShouGang* & XUE JinZhuang Key Laboratory of Orogenic Belts and Crustal Evolution, School of Earth and Space Sciences, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China Received January 14, 2013; accepted February 26, 2013; published online April 10, 2013 Evolutionary changes in the structure of leaves have had far-reaching effects on the anatomy and physiology of vascular plants, resulting in morphological diversity and species expansion. People have long been interested in the question of the nature of the morphology of early leaves and how they were attained. At least five lineages of euphyllophytes can be recognized among the Early Devonian fossil plants (Pragian age, ca. 410 Ma ago) of South China. Their different leaf precursors or “branch-leaf com- plexes” are believed to foreshadow true megaphylls with different venation patterns and configurations, indicating that multiple origins of megaphylls had occurred by the Early Devonian, much earlier than has previously been recognized. In addition to megaphylls in euphyllophytes, the laminate leaf-like appendages (sporophylls or bracts) occurred independently in several dis- tantly related Early Devonian plant lineages, probably as a response to ecological factors such as high atmospheric CO2 concen- trations. This is a typical example of convergent evolution in early plants. Early Devonian, euphyllophyte, megaphyll, leaf-like appendage, branch-leaf complex Citation: Hao S G, Xue J Z.

  • Ferns of the National Forests in Alaska
    Ferns of the National Forests in Alaska United States Forest Service R10-RG-182 Department of Alaska Region June 2010 Agriculture Ferns abound in Alaska’s two national forests, the Chugach and the Tongass, which are situated on the southcentral and southeastern coast respectively. These forests contain myriad habitats where ferns thrive. Most showy are the ferns occupying the forest floor of temperate rainforest habitats. However, ferns grow in nearly all non-forested habitats such as beach meadows, wet meadows, alpine meadows, high alpine, and talus slopes. The cool, wet climate highly influenced by the Pacific Ocean creates ideal growing conditions for ferns. In the past, ferns had been loosely grouped with other spore-bearing vascular plants, often called “fern allies.” Recent genetic studies reveal surprises about the relationships among ferns and fern allies. First, ferns appear to be closely related to horsetails; in fact these plants are now grouped as ferns. Second, plants commonly called fern allies (club-mosses, spike-mosses and quillworts) are not at all related to the ferns. General relationships among members of the plant kingdom are shown in the diagram below. Ferns & Horsetails Flowering Plants Conifers Club-mosses, Spike-mosses & Quillworts Mosses & Liverworts Thirty of the fifty-four ferns and horsetails known to grow in Alaska’s national forests are described and pictured in this brochure.

  • Scouring-Rush Horsetail Scientific Name: Equisetum Hyemale Order
    Common Name: Scouring-rush Horsetail Scientific Name: Equisetum hyemale Order: Equisetales Family: Equisetaceae Wetland Plant Status: Facultative Ecology & Description Scouring-rush horsetail is an evergreen, perennial plant that completes a growing season in two years. At maturity, scouring-rush horsetail usually averages 3 feet in height but can be range anywhere from 2 to 5 feet. It can survive in a variety of environments. One single plant can spread 6 feet in diameter. It has cylindrical stems that averages a third of an inch in diameter. Noticeably spotted are the jointed unions that are located down the plant. The stems are hollow and don’t branch off into additional stems. Also, scouring- rush horsetail has rough ridges that run longitudinal along the stem. Although not covered in leaves, tiny leaves are joined together around the stem which then forms a black or green band, or sheath at each individual joint on the stem. This plant has an enormous root system that can reach 6 feet deep and propagates in two ways: rhizomes and spores. Incredibly, due to the fact that this plant is not full of leaves, it is forced to photosynthesize through the stem rather than leaves. Habitat Scouring-rush horsetail is highly tolerant of tough conditions. It can survive and thrive in full sun or part shade and can successfully grow in a variety of soil types. It can also grow in moderate to wet soils, and can survive in up to 4 inches of water. Distribution Scouring-rush horsetail can be found throughout the United States, Eurasia, and Canada.

  • Native Plant List, Pdf Format
    Appendix A: City of Bellingham Native Plant List December 2020 The City of Bellingham Native Plant List (Figure 1) includes plant species that are native to Bellingham watersheds (Figure 2). The native plant list applies to all habitat types, including riparian, upland, and wetland areas. The list was developed using specimen records from the Consortium of Pacific Northwest Herbaria and Bellingham plant checklists curated by Don Knoke, a volunteer at the University of Washington Herbarium. To improve plant establishment and protect the genetic resources of our local plant populations, the City recommends using native plants that were grown from seeds or cuttings collected from the Puget Trough Ecoregion (Figure 3). Obtaining native plants grown from material collected from the Puget Trough Ecoregion will help ensure the plants are adapted to the unique environmental conditions of Bellingham watersheds and are genetically similar to our local plant populations. A more thorough discussion of the rational and selection process is provided in the City of Bellingham Public Works Department Native Plant Materials Selection Guidelines, December 2020. Figure 1.

    Floristic study of a protected wetland from Borsaros-Sancraieni, Harghita County, Romania 1Emilian Pricop, 2Paul N. Filip, 3Bogdan-Mihai Negrea 1 Natural Sciences Museum of Piatra Neamţ - Neamţ County Museum Complex, Piatra Neamţ, Neamţ, Romania; 2 Faculty of Biology, “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi, Iaşi, Romania; 3 ”Danube Delta” National Institute for Research and Development, Department of Ecological Restoration and Species Recovery, Tulcea, Romania. Corresponding author: E. Pricop, [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we intend to present a brief floristic survey and the old literature data over an interesting area in the Harghita County, Romania, Borsaros-Sancraieni swamp reserve, area protected since the beginning of 1939. Important personal scientific observations are highlighted. This paper was written specially to reveal the diversity of vascular flora from this area and the surroundings, and the risks which treat this bog. We confirm the presence of main characteristic species of this swamp type and complete the vascular flora species list. This area was mentioned as an important refuge of some rare glacial relict plant species of main conservation importance as: Betula humilis Schrank, Drosera anglica Hudson, Ligularia sibirica L. and Saxifraga hirculus L. Also, we would like to signal a significant change of the initial habitat, for which the area was designated a protected area, due in particular to the anthropic activity but also the lack of involvement in the conservation of nature at local and regional level. Key Words: vascular flora, swamp reserve, Betula humilis Schrank, Drosera anglica Hudson, Ligularia sibirica L., Saxifraga hirculus L., species list, habitat loss, adventive species.

  • Equisetum Fluviatile a New Adventive Species in New Zealand
    Two natives it might not be extravagant to claim as rheophytes are Podocarpus totara and P. acutifolius; they have limber firm leaved saplings and a marked ability to develop new roots from the lower trunk after burial by sand and gravel. Perhaps other flood plain trees such as the lacebarks owe their similar juvenile form (i.e. flexuose not divaricating) to river shaping as much as to the moa. ..Finally we must consider the Waitakere Range most abundant rheophyte even though it is adventive mist flower (Eupatorium riparium). This is coming to dominate all our northern stream beds but does equally well on clay road cuttings or at the foot of slopes in woodland e.g. Auckland Domain. Van Steenis suggests that in its home of Mexico or West Indies it might be a kremnophyte that is a plant of steep banks such as river terrace scarps or landslide scars. He notes that it was deliberately introduced to highland Java for the purpose of stabilizing earth walls in tea and cinchona plantations! Mist flower has the typical rheophytic leaf shape and can make strong growth of adventitious roots. It would seem to disperse a short way by wind and over longer distances through virtue of the barbellate nature of the achene and pappus. Though mist flower is of interest as one of the relatively few rheophytes in the Compositae we can hope that it will not be too long before some insect or parasite arrives (or that we adopt the Javanese practice of composting the species) giving our native rheophytes a chance of having their Story told in greater depth than has been attempted here.
